I am collecting a list of open source online resources with a specific focus on issues relating to senior police management and administration. I have just started to put this collection together and would appreciate any feedback you could provide on resources not listed here. I will only consider open source materials which reflect academic rigour and which I am confident are publicly available with consent of the owner/author. Please send any suggested website/resource with the corresponding URL address (link) to me at artpittman@canadianpoliceleadership.ca
